A group of students, believed to be affiliated to ABVP, today staged a protest outside Delhi University's Hansraj College where Shah Rukh Khan came for an event and shouted slogans against the actor telling him to go back.

The 50-year-old "Dilwale" star was in his alma mater to launch a song from his upcoming film "Fan", which is also set in Delhi.

Around 10 students stood outside the college's main gate and shouted slogans like "Go Back Shah Rukh".

"Some students were protesting outside the gate for few minutes before Shah Rukh's arrival. We asked them not to do that and after a while they left. They were shouting slogans 'Go back Shah Rukh'," a police official on duty said.
 
The actor is facing a lot of backlash following his comment on intolerance last November. Recently, stones were pelted at his car in Ahmedabad, where he is shooting another film "Raees".
